Chinese authorities have praised the return of Tianya – which was one of the country’s most popular internet forums in the pre-algorithm, pre-short-video era – while cautioning that freedom of speech must be balanced with responsibility. The pioneering web portal was launched by Tianya Community Network Technology Co. in 1999, when the internet was in its infancy in China, but suddenly closed in April 2023 due to financial problems. On Sunday, the company announced that the forum would come back...
Tianya Community, one of China's most influential online forums from the early internet era, resumed access Monday after being offline for more than three years.

Countries: Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Somalia Source: ELRHA In the first blog introducing this series, Adrienne Testa, from the UK Humanitarian Innovation Hub and Elrha discussed how fundamental it is to measure excess mortality if response actors want to understand the severity of a humanitarian crisis and guide aid prioritisation. In our second blog we focus on the work of a consortium led by IMPACT Initiatives. This consortium is drawing attention to the roles that national and local actors play in mortality data collection and use by decision-makers and what is needed to design more localised mortality estimation systems in humanitarian contexts. The structural barriers we need to talk about Many of the challenges for local and national actors to collect mortality data and inform responses are well known, but poorly documented. They have fewer opportunities for technical training; face inequitable access to financial resources for activities; and structural barriers limit their representation in coordination forums where decision-making occurs about whether mortality data should be collected, who collects it, and what findings can mean. Meanwhile, international actors frequently have a seat at the table, and therefore control the narrative, deciding what data matters and how it will shape response priorities. Yet, local and national actors – including non-governmental organisations (NGOs), universities, and public health institutes – are often ideally placed to collect mortality estimates and inform response decisions. They have established connections and access to affected communities and contextual understanding of how to appropriately and effectively operate. They understand political sensitivities and how to navigate these so that mortality estimation findings will carry legitimacy with key stakeholders and decision-makers. Crucially, locally-led mortality estimation initiatives challenge long-standing power imbalances associated with colonial, top-down approaches to humanitarian assistance. Recognising this, three partners in our consortium, Evidence for Change, London School of Tropical Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and SIMAD University, were funded by the Humanitarian Innovation Hub in 2024-25 to imagine what an ideal mechanism might look like to systematically trigger mortality data collection for accountable decision-making in crises. Consultation with global humanitarian stakeholders confirmed: If we want better mortality data, we must widen the pool of people able to generate it. This starts with investing in and strengthening the capacities of local actors. Funding local actors’ priorities and strengthening capacities With follow-on funding from UKHIH-Elrha in 2025-26, our consortium expanded. We teamed up with IMPACT Initiatives along with their partners at Addis Ababa and Mekelle Universities in Ethiopia and World Needs and Help, an NGO in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Together, we’re working to better understand real-world opportunities and obstacles faced by national actors when implementing mortality estimation activities. Our goal is to use this evidence to strengthen advocacy for approaches that support and prioritise local actors in this vital work. Rather than imposing a predefined research plan, each national partner has selected, tailored and implemented a mortality estimation activity to their context. Our consortium operates a ‘help desk’ to foster peer-learning and strengthen capacities across contexts. Activities include: Somalia: New approaches in a fragmented landscape Our previous work in Somalia demonstrated the effectiveness of well-designed data collection exercises to influence humanitarian decision-making - when findings were communicated - in a timely fashion and to the right people. However, we also saw how fragmented the current data landscape is, with mortality data not always collaboratively shared between institutions, and major gaps in mortality data coverage, particularly in areas outside government control. SIMAD University is therefore running a qualitative study with community burial attendants in hard-to-reach areas of Somalia, exploring what would be needed for this to become a feasible and acceptable mechanism of mortality reporting to bridge data gaps. Drawing on a nutrition and mortality surveillance system originally developed in the NGO sector, Evidence for Change is training female health workers to collect mortality data within a large-scale community-based government programme. Ethiopia: Regional partnerships for regional aid prioritisation Previously, universities across Ethiopia ran demographic surveillance sites in their local areas, with mortality and other data flowing to government authorities. Conflict dismantled many of these surveillance programmes. Addis Ababa and Mekelle Universities, which previously ran surveillance sites, are now partnering with regional health authorities in drought-affected Somali region and conflict-hit Tigray to conduct mortality surveys to help guide regional aid prioritisation. Mekelle University is also including a verbal autopsy component to describe the causes of death, something regional authorities found particularly valuable about the pre-war surveillance system because it helped them monitor the health of populations. Democratic Republic of Congo: Navigating insecurity and mistrust Engagements with both formal and informal authorities in eastern Congo can create tension or mistrust, complicating operational permissions and community access. Nevertheless, World Needs and Help is initiating a mortality survey in a conflict‑affected North Kivu region, to document the human toll of ongoing violence and displacement. While the organisation has no prior experience in mortality estimation, our consortium helped them expand their technical skillset. Their experience supporting needs assessments among various partners across the east means they are well positioned to navigate the complex challenges to ensure mortality estimation is possible. Alongside these activities, we are documenting how teams have approached the process, keeping a close eye on context. We are building on social science methodological approaches we developed in phase 1 to help us understand how politics, institutional identities and other evolving challenges shape the ways mortality actors work. Equitable and sustainable systems change None of these challenges have quick fixes. Building an equitable and sustainable approach to mortality estimation will require the concerted efforts of many stakeholders, working together to drive change. Our own consortium is part of that broader momentum. By documenting barriers and testing solutions today, our hope is to inform the strategy that will address these challenges tomorrow, supporting UKHIH’s drive for true systems innovation in humanitarian action.
The Canadian man who helped scores of people worldwide kill themselves by selling them poison pleaded guilty on Friday to 14 counts of aiding suicide, as prosecutors said they will withdraw murder charges. Since Kenneth Law’s arrest in 2023, details of the online forums where he advised distressed people on how to end their lives have caused public outrage and triggered investigations in several countries. In Canada, Law faced 14 murder charges and an additional 14 charges for aiding suicide. At...
President Asif Ali Zardari has summoned separate sessions of the National Assembly and the Senate on June 5 for discussing the federal budget for fiscal year (FY) 2026-27. According to an official press release issued by the Presidency on Friday, the NA has been summoned at 5pm on June 5, while the Senate session is scheduled for 6pm. Meetings of the Annual Plan Coordination Committee (APCC) and the National Economic Council (NEC) — forums which review economic and development performance during the outgoing FY and set targets for the following year — are scheduled in the first week of June. The schedule hints that presentation of the federal budget to parliament may slip to the second week of June from the first week, as earlier contemplated by the authorities concerned. The government is set to approve a consolidated national development programme of more than Rs3.5 trillion and a macroeconomic framework envisaging an economic growth rate of 4.1 per cent with an elevated inflation rate of 8.5pc for FY2026-27. Last week, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded its visit to Pakistan, with discussions focusing on the “budget strategy” for the next FY and economic developments. Earlier this month, the government denied a report that Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, who has previously served as the finance czar, had been handed over the budget-making process. “The story incorrectly portrays the constitution of a high-level review committee by the prime minister as a ‘handover’ of the budget-making process from the Finance Division or as a ‘sidelining’ of the finance minister,” the finance ministry asserted.
Kenneth Law is a former chef accused of running a number of online forums that offered predominantly young, distressed people advice on how to end their lives.
Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, who is on a two-day visit to New York, met United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, with both sides discussing the situation in the Middle East, the Foreign Office (FO) said on Wednesday. DPM Dar arrived in New York a day earlier. In its statement, the FO said that during the meeting, DPM Dar lauded the UN chief’s “steadfast commitment to the UN and multilateralism” and also expressed appreciation for his “continued support and strong cooperation” with Pakistan. As per the statement, the two leaders discussed regional developments, including the situation in the Middle East and West Asia, during which Dar thanked Guterres for his “principled position and support” for Pakistan’s mediation efforts in the US-Iran war. DPM Dar also “highlighted Pakistan’s successful hosting of the Islamabad Talks in April, which represented an important diplomatic breakthrough,” and said the April 8 Pakistan-brokered ceasefire continued to remain in place. Dar assured the UN chief of Pakistan’s “continued engagement and dialogue” to restore peace in the region. As per FO, Dar “reaffirmed Pakistan’s strong commitment to upholding the principles and purposes of the UN Charter and advancing international peace and security through constructive engagement at the UN”. FO further stated that Dar also appreciated the UN chief’s leadership in the UN80 initiative, stressing that the interests of the developing countries should remain “central” to the initiative. The U80 initiative aims to “streamline operations, sharpen impact, and reaffirm the UN’s relevance for a rapidly changing world,” as per the UN’s website. In his meeting with Guterres, Dar also stressed the need for “strengthening conflict prevention, the peaceful settlement of disputes, and peacekeeping and peacebuilding efforts in line with evolving global realities”. He maintained that a comprehensive reform process should be based on “principles of sovereign equality, transparency, inclusivity, and broad-based consensus among member states”. “These principles could only be upheld through the addition of elected members,” FO quoted him as saying. The two leaders also exchanged views on South Asia, where Dar raised alarm over “provocative and inflammatory statements by India, which he said, “undermines regional stability”. Dar further held that India’s unilateral move of holding the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance was a “clear violation of international law, the treaty’s provisions, and established norms governing inter-state relations”. On India-occupied Kashmir, Dar said the dispute remained the “core issue” between Pakistan and India. He maintained that Kashmir’s “just resolution” remained “essential” for peace in the region. On Afghanistan, Dar maintained that a “peaceful and stable” Afghanistan was “vital” for regional stability, but also expressed concern over the terrorist elements emanating from Afghan soil. He went to reaffirm “Pakistan’s resolve to safeguard its national security and protect its citizens in accordance with international law and the UN Charter,” FO said. The two also spoke about Palestine, and the foreign minister lauded the UN chief’s “continued advocacy” for a two-state solution as well as the implementation of the Gaza Peace Plan. As per FO, Guterres, on his part, expressed appreciation for “Pakistan’s active engagement at the UN and its continued contributions to international peace and security, including through diplomacy and peacekeeping efforts”. A day earlier, Dar addressed a UNSC debate chaired by Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi at the UN headquarters in New York, where he pushed for sustained diplomacy in the ongoing US-Iran crisis and highlighted Islamabad’s role in efforts aimed at reducing tensions between Tehran and Washington. While a deal for a complete end to the war — which broke out on February 28 — is yet to happen, hostilities have largely ceased since the two sides agreed on a Pakistan-brokered ceasefire on April 8. Following the ceasefire, a first round of historic direct US-Iran talks was held in Islamabad on April 11 and 12, with Pakistan playing the role of a mediator. The talks had ended without an agreement, but also without a breakdown. Dar meets Bahrain FM Separately, Dar also met Bahrain’s Foreign Minister Dr Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani, as per FO. “The two leaders reaffirmed the strong fraternal ties between Pakistan and Bahrain and discussed expanding cooperation in trade, investment, and economic sectors,” FO said in a post on X. The top diplomats also discussed “regional developments and cooperation at multilateral forums, including the UN,” the statement said. “Both sides agreed to further strengthen the Pakistan–Bahrain partnership across diverse fields, including as fellow elected members of the UNSC,” the FO further stated.
Country: World Source: UN Women Crises are not gender-neutral. Women and girls are disproportionately affected due to pre-existing gender inequalities and discriminatory social norms, which limit their access to humanitarian aid, services, resources, and decision-making power. It is not surprising that the 30-year review of progress on the landmark Beijing Declaration and Platform of Action found that progress for women and girls is slowest in conflict and crisis-affected countries. The review raised the alarm about how ongoing trends may further thwart progress. The data is stark: Women and girls in extremely fragile contexts are 7.7 times more likely to live in households below the poverty line of USD 2.15 per day than those in non-fragile contexts. Under a worst-case climate scenario, up to 158.3 million additional women and girls could be pushed into poverty by 2050 as a direct result of climate change, surpassing the number of men and boys by 16 million. The number of food-insecure women and girls could rise by as much as 236 million, compared with an additional 131 million men and boys. The average incidence of child marriage in conflict-affected countries is 14.4 percentage points higher than in non-conflict settings. More than a third of maternal deaths occurred in 48 fragile and conflict-affected countries. Sexual violence in conflict zones has risen sharply in recent years, while impunity for these violations has remained the norm. Girls’ educational attainment continues to lag in conflict-affected countries. Behind these numbers are women and girls who have lost their lives, had their safety and health shattered, their rights eroded, their dignity compromised, and their potential squandered. From Gaza and Sudan to Haiti, Lebanon, and elsewhere, the gendered impacts are both immediate and long term, affecting individuals and societies. They are also not contained within borders. For example, according to a UN Women gender alert on the military escalation in the Middle East, rising food and fuel prices and supply disruptions risk deepening food insecurity and livelihood erosion and increasing unpaid care burdens for women and girls across the Arab region, Asia-Pacific, Africa, and beyond. A humanitarian system under pressure The unfolding tragedy of escalating and protracted conflicts and crises and growing humanitarian needs is taking place against a backdrop of several important global trends. First, recent years have seen a rising backlash against gender equality taking place within the wider context of democratic erosion and shrinking civic space in various countries and regions. This is influencing government policies as well as mainstream opinions and attitudes – and threatening hard-won gains for women and girls. Second, the world is experiencing a severe contraction of international aid precisely when it is needed the most. Recent data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development shows that international aid fell in 2025 by 23.1 per cent in real terms compared with 2024, representing the largest annual drop in the history of official development assistance. This brings aid back to 2015 levels – the year the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development began. As the Global Humanitarian Overview 2025 lays bare, the massive cuts to aid have forced the humanitarian system to do the “cruel math of doing less with less” and “hyper-prioritize” assistance toward those assessed to be in the direst need. The Humanitarian Reset, launched through the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) in March 2025, aims to make the system faster, lighter, more accountable, and more impactful. Against this backdrop, the international community needs to take bold and urgent action based on ample evidence of what works and rooted in existing commitments to gender equality and women’s rights. Put gender equality at the center of the reset First, gender equality needs to be a cornerstone of the ongoing Humanitarian Reset and not seen as a peripheral issue. In the drive for efficiency, simplification, and focus on strictly defined and hyper-prioritized life-saving assistance, there is a risk that implementation of the IASC’s commitments to gender equality may fall short. As funding contracts and established universal norms are under attack, now is the time to double down and prioritize interventions led by women and in support of their lives, dignity, and rights. Under the reset, there is a commitment that the humanitarian system will “defend” norms and principles, including on gender equality. The reset’s outcomes will depend on how consistently and concretely this is done at different levels – globally and in countries. A critical pillar is to recognize women’s vital and rich contributions in crisis-affected settings and enable their full and equal participation and leadership in decision-making processes. Women and girls are not passive victims or mere recipients of aid – they are responders on the front lines and are shaping the outcomes of crises, as community leaders and organizers, primary caregivers, educators, economic contributors, and peacebuilders. There is plenty of evidence that their leadership is a precondition for effective humanitarian responses, as well as for addressing the root causes of conflicts and for building sustainable recovery and peace. And yet we are far from achieving longstanding commitments to women’s participation and leadership as per the Sustainable Development Goals and the Women, Peace and Security agenda. All too often, participation remains tokenistic and women may have seats but no real influence over decisions made. Whether in internationally led mediation processes, in country-level humanitarian teams and cluster coordination groups, in funding allocation advisory boards, or in other decision-making forums – women need to be equally present and heard, and their perspectives recognized and heeded. They need to be able to exercise this fundamental right safely and without negative repercussions. Fund women-led and women’s rights organizations Second, women-led and women’s rights organizations working in conflict and crisis-affected countries need urgent funding. They were already underfunded and overstretched prior to recent funding cuts. UN Women’s report, At a breaking point, warns that these cuts have placed enormous additional strain on their vital work and even their very existence. Both the quantity and the quality of funding matter. Funding needs to be flexible, multi-year, and reflective of the holistic and transformative nature of their work, which is not only life-saving and life-sustaining but also often encompasses longer-term development, peace, democracy building, human rights, and gender-equality objectives. Both funding and broader political support need to take into account the significant, often overlooked, risks faced in crisis settings by women, girls, gender-diverse leaders, and human rights defenders. Work across the humanitarian–development–peace nexus Finally, it is critical that humanitarian, development, and peace actors work more closely and effectively together to address the complex challenges of today’s protracted and multifaceted crises. Meeting immediate needs should go hand in hand with building community resilience to disasters, strengthening governance systems, and addressing the root causes of conflict. Gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls need to be embedded throughout this nexus and its various components – from defining collective gender outcomes, to conducting joint gender analysis and assessments, to harmonizing funding streams with gender markers and ambitious targets for funding projects and interventions that address women’s specific needs, advance gender equality, or empower women. The stakes could not be higher. As the international community navigates an era of shrinking resources, eroding norms, and multiplying crises, the choices made now will determine whether women and girls are left further behind or emerge as the architects of more just and resilient societies. Delivering on commitments to gender equality in crisis settings is not a matter of idealism – it is a prerequisite for effective, sustainable, and principled responses. The evidence is clear and the commitments exist. The world cannot afford the cost of inaction. This article is reprinted with permission from SDG Action.

CLIMATE debates routinely cite Pakistan’s grim paradox: we are among the world’s countries most exposed to climate shocks, yet we have contributed little to the emissions that drive them. At recent COPs and other international forums, Pakistan has rightly called out this injustice, as well as the failure of international recognition to translate into financing at the required scale. But it would be equally inexcusable if we failed to recognise the same pattern of injustice within the country. The regions most battered by floods, heat extremes and glacial lake outburst floods are often the least responsible for high-emissions lifestyles: excessive energy use, private vehicle dependence and other climate-unfriendly consumption patterns. While a common defence claims lack of granular data for addressing our problems, including climate adaptation, overlooking the existing data from multiple sources within Pakistan indicates sheer apathy. Climate risk can be mapped at the district level using the Met Office’s indicators on temperature and rainfall, census markers of drought- and flood-affected mauzas and other available information. Last year, the Population Council released its District Vulnerability Index for Pakistan, curating and analysing Pakistani data to rank districts and link them with specific climate risks. Of the 20 most vulnerable districts, 17 are situated in Balochistan, two in KP and one in Sindh. These districts are likely to face significant climate stress, including temperature and rainfall changes, flooding and droughts. We must first acknowledge these inherent disparities and then design remedies to reduce chronic vulnerabilities. To build climate resilience, reducing vulnerability must form the core of our development agenda. The picture that emerges is consistent: the most vulnerable districts are concentrated in Balochistan and KP, extending into Sindh and southern Punjab if we expand the vulnerability threshold. This encompasses roughly 29 million people living with deep, structural disadvantage. Many of these communities are remote and disconnected; long distances to paved roads cut them off from even primary schools and basic healthcare. Households are more likely to live in temporary, often overcrowded single-room homes with large families. Livelihoods depend heavily on agriculture and livestock, frequently as unpaid family labour. These districts will repeatedly bear the brunt of multiple climate shocks. If we refuse to acknowledge that millions of Pakistanis live on the edge — highly exposed and poorly protected — then every flood and extra degree of heat will push them further into poverty illness, and displacement. This will only exacerbate the damage of international climate injustice, as communities with unequal starting points cannot absorb shocks, rebuild and return to their earlier lives. This was fully apparent when the 2022 floods produced scenes that should have shamed us all: pregnant women giving birth in the open, children dying from preventable causes, families with nowhere to bury their dead. The catastrophe was not merely about water levels; it was about who the water reached first — and who was left with the least protection when it receded. Climate action cannot be separated from development planning. Unless we level the playing field through smarter planning and fairer resource allocation, climate initiatives will remain a band-aid until the next shock knocks families down again, especially women and children, and traps them in perpetual poverty. Pakistan is at its best when it solves its problems with local capacity and local solutions, but those solutions must reach the places that are most exposed and the least served. We learned during the Covid-19 crisis that shocks are not experienced equally. Where systems are stronger — typically urban centres — the people cope better. Where services are thin and distances long — generally remote rural districts — the same disruption becomes a crisis. Climate shocks follow these same fault lines, but they will intensify and recur. At the recent Breathe Pakistan conference, more than a dozen panels warned that time was running out. Speakers highlighted technical solutions — renewables, e-vehicles, cleaner industry — and urged changes in personal spending and behaviour to reduce waste and pollution. All these matter, but climate action can succeed only when the people are equipped with a minimum platform of education, health and livelihoods. Policies that assume capacity where none exists will not protect those living on the edges. Inclusivity must be central. The needs of women and girls, young people, infants, older persons and people with disabilities were discussed in a panel titled ‘Unequal burdens, shared futures: reframing climate action through equity’. True climate justice, achieved through equity, must begin by confronting the reality that many of the most severely vulnerable districts also face multiple, overlapping climate risks. In these places, children may walk 10 times the usual distance to reach school and a pregnant woman may need to travel 50 kilometres for an antenatal check-up — distances that turn every flood, heatwave and disease outbreak into a life-threatening event. No single government or group is solely to blame, nor should any feel defensive; high levels of vulnerability transcend provincial boundaries and did not emerge overnight. Regional and district-level disparities are the product of political economy, geography and decades of uneven investment in infrastructure, human capital and livelihood opportunities. Corrective action must transcend political interests and be treated as a national priority. If we are serious about climate resilience, then reducing basic vulnerability must be at the core of our development agenda — not as an add-on after disasters. The most practical path involves data-driven, district-focused planning that targets equity and risk together. Provincial finance commissions and local government strategies should align behind a coordinated reform agenda for the most vulnerable districts by 2030. This agenda should include connecting remote communities through better roads, transport and communications; upgrading education and health services; diversifying livelihoods; expanding disaster-resilient housing; investing in human capital through improved demographics (including lower fertility rates and higher labour force participation); and strengthening community-level preparedness and response. This is what climate justice looks like when it starts at home. The writer is country adviser, Population Council. Published in Dawn, May 23rd, 2026
